Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil
2 leeks or onions
300 g swiss or rainbow chard
4 cloves garlic crushed
15 g dill finely chopped
15 g parsley finely chopped
15 g mint finely chopped
1 lemon zested and juiced
1 tbsp tahini
1 tsp sumac
1/2 tsp chilli flakes
200 g feta crumbled
400 g plain flour
100 ml olive oil
1 egg beaten
2 tbsp sesame seeds

Steps

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, then cook sliced leeks, chard, and garlic for 8 minutes.
Stir in the dill, parsley, mint, lemon zest, lemon juice, tahini, sumac, and chili flakes, then cool for 10 minutes.
Mix the flour, 100 ml olive oil, a pinch of salt, and enough water to make a soft dough, then rest it for 15 minutes.
Heat the oven to 375 F and divide the dough into two pieces, rolling one into a 10-inch round.
Press the dough into a 9-inch pie pan, fill it with the chard mixture and feta, and cover it with the second dough round.
Brush the top with beaten egg, sprinkle on sesame seeds, cut a few vents, and bake for 35 minutes until golden.
